 Prescription Diving Mask Hello everyone, I might be tempted to give it a go at my first diving lesson at my next visit to Dumaguete. I'm shortsighted though and will need some prescription diving mask. How do we get round this problem?  |

| Two ways to get around that, contact's or you need to buy a prescription mask.

| Maybe he could break the arms off his glasses and epoxy the glasses to the bridge of his nose. It'd be like a pair of spectacles under a standard mask. Problem solved. |

| I found prescription lenses for sale at the dive shop in the shopping mall in Tagbilaran City, Bohol. Total cost for lenses and mask was $70.00. You will have to know what lens number to buy. |

| logicwings...that is cheap! I used scubastore.com to get a Mares x-vision mask and lenses and it would have been well over twice that price you got...Are the Tag city masks any good?....I can't complain - best mask I've ever had - never leaked a drop - but the prices here in Oz are really horrendous for prescription-lensed masks... |

| love the x-vision but does not fit on my face. Went for the Cressi Matrix a kind of similar with even better view and softer silicon. different lenses are available in Cebu and can be shipped here in one day.

| Seavision in Florida are probably the best for bifocal prescription masks...you pay though about $200+ for the quality of the lens and mask however, I am really happy with mine. I even got the red coloured lenses which make everything underwater look even better...and a purge valve which I also really like as I don't have to clear the mask anymore. Sometimes it is worth paying for the best! |
